Nourishes—
The vibrant green liquid flowed into Hiriote's body through the IV tube.
From the outside, she remained completely still; but according to the instruments, the energy within her body had become extremely unstable under the influence of the antidote, as if it would burst out of her body at any moment...!
"Ugh... Hmm!"
Ludwig had a splitting headache, but she had no intention of stopping the spell.
Because if she lets go, Hilliot will undoubtedly explode and die.
"Give it to me, and behave yourself!"
Om-!
...
...
...
The treatment process took an unknown amount of time, but it was certainly very long for everyone involved.
Ludwig glanced at the instrument next to her from time to time. She could see that the glass bottle containing the antidote, which was hanging upside down, was gradually running low.
Her strength was so exhausted that she could hardly speak to Ye Liuli. She could only silently maintain the ritual, manipulating the flow of energy to ensure that it would not disrupt the form that was being reshaped by Xiliot.
However, humans are ultimately limited. Even though the limits of vampires are countless times higher than those of humans, there will still be a moment when they reach their limit.
Having severely overdrawn her strength, Ludwig finally collapsed the moment the antidote was completely used up.
"Ouch!"
puff-
She staggered and fell to the ground, and Ye Liuli was shocked.
"Ludwig...Your Majesty!"
Ludwig gasped, "Oh no..."
Om-! !
boom!
Under the impact of a burst of energy, the overburdened precision instrument finally burned out, and the IV tubing detached, emitting wisps of white smoke.
Ye Liuli looked at the most important dial in horror—
[Concentration of Apocalypse Plague Toxin]
[Remaining -0%]
...
Tears welled up in Ye Liuli's eyes; she had waited for this moment for countless years.
For many years, the dial, which could hardly be lowered, finally reached its lowest point and stopped moving.
But this does not mean that Hilliot's treatment is over!
Her body has not yet been stabilized, and the fragmented Holy Grail pieces are almost unable to form a stable energy source without external control!
"Your Majesty, are you alright?!"
Ye Liuli helped Ludwig up, her expression worried.
Ludwig looked dazed: "I...I'm so tired...I want to rest..."
Then, she shook her head, her unfocused pupils barely regaining their light.
"No, we can't rest yet... Quick, check on her condition! She... cough cough...!"
Ye Liuli helped the weakened Ludwig to her feet and looked towards the inside of the Queen's coffin.
Go and take a look.
They all froze on the spot the moment they saw what was inside the coffin.
...
Inside the Queen's coffin, Hilliot had already recovered to her former healthy state.
Her atrophied muscles regained their fullness, and every inch of her skin was no longer as pale as before, smooth and white as jade.
However, her long, silvery-white hair, beautiful as a waterfall in the moonlight...
It had all turned into gold!
...
...
...
Ludwig and Ye Liuli remained frozen in place.
They watched helplessly as the girl, who had been asleep for so long, awoke.
The girl slowly propped herself up, and then opened her blood-red eyes.
She scanned her surroundings, and finally her gaze settled on Ludwig and Ye Liuli.
...
She smiled slightly, seemingly a little confused.
"Oh, isn't this Little Cutie and... Little Li?"
"Hiss...Where am I?"
...
...
The moment they heard her tone, both Ye Liuli and Ludwig looked as if they had seen a ghost.
In a sense... it was something even more terrifying than seeing a ghost.
Ye Liuli raised her hand with trembling hands and pointed at the petite girl in front of her.
"You...who are you?"
...
...
"Hmm? Why does Xiao Li look so nervous?"
"I...of course I'm Lingxi."
Chapter 203 Never Separate
Both Ludwig and Ye Liuli experienced sudden cardiac arrest.
The "Hiliot" before me not only had familiar blonde hair, but her mannerisms and tone of voice were exactly the same as someone else's...
"What's wrong? Why do you all have those expressions?"
She tilted her head, looking puzzled, and tried to get up.
However, due to decades of paralysis, her muscles have degenerated, and even though the toxins that eroded her body have been cured, she is now completely unable to stand up.
"Huh, why isn't my body obeying my commands... and... it's gotten so small..."
...
Ludwig and Ye Liuli looked at each other, clearly confused by the situation.
But right now, we need to get her to understand the situation first!
Ye Liuli picked up a reflector that had fallen from an instrument and held it up in front of "Hiliot".
Look in the mirror. See who you are.
The blonde girl looked over in confusion, and then she froze.
"...Little Hilly?"
She touched her face, and the blonde girl in the mirror did the same.
"I?"
Her brain overloaded and she screamed:
"Wow ah ah-"
...
...
...
"But that's impossible!"
The blonde girl who calls herself "Spirit Dweller" has the appearance of Hilliot, but her behavior is completely different from that of the person she claims to be... not Hilliot.
She shook her head repeatedly in denial:
"This is impossible! My true form... the Holy Grail... should have died completely when it shattered... The fragmented consciousness within the Holy Grail could never reassemble into a thinking being..."
"The dead cannot be brought back to life... not even the spirits of artifacts. Otherwise, they would have resurrected Longinus long ago!"
...
Upon hearing this, Ludwig and Ye Liuli exchanged glances once again.
Everything she said was true, but the current situation is indeed inexplicable.
"Could it be that Lingxi's residual consciousness is still too strong? In the process of repairing Siriot's origin, her residual obsessions and memories overshadowed her, causing Siriot to mistakenly believe that she is Lingxi?"
Ludwig was deep in thought.
"This is indeed the most likely inference."
...
Upon hearing this, the blonde girl's pupils suddenly filled with shock.
"You mean... I'm actually... my true love..."
"Xi...Xili..."
Her once bright pupils instantly dimmed, and she drooped her head, falling helplessly back into the coffin.
Pfft!
"What's wrong!"
The two exclaimed in surprise and rushed forward to check her breathing and forehead; everything was normal.
"Something definitely went wrong with the ceremony! We have to figure it out..."
Ludwig was so exhausted that she became delirious and her mind became quite sluggish.
While she was still struggling to think, Ye Liuli suddenly nudged her.
"Your Majesty Ludwig...look!"
Looking up, I saw that "Hiriote" had undergone another incredible change...!
Her blonde hair unexpectedly faded from the ends, and in no time, it disappeared completely, turning into her familiar long silver hair.
About half a minute later, "Hiriote," whose hair had turned white again, opened her eyes once more.
But her gaze changed again, becoming completely different from before.
"..."
She propped herself up for the second time, glancing at the two of them with a slightly bewildered look.
"..."
"Xiao Li...and...my family member...Ludwig?"
